Well that's the fighting spirit! Again it is another 3 set and another com from behind from Dani. So proud of her! I hope she can make it an easier win against Urzsula but she hasn't against her for a long time. Revenge Dani revenge!

Dani plays the second daytime match tomorrow on what they call Cancha Central. Play begins a little after 3:00 PM.

I forgot to note that, down 3-5 in the third and facing the first of Puig's match points, Daniela dialed up an ace on 2nd serve. Rumor is that play was almost delayed today because repairs were needed to remove the imprint Daniela's back left on the wall.

This must have rubbed off on Rybarikova. She just saved 4 MP's in a 3rd set tiebreaker, winning it 11-9, in a match lasting 2:46.

The weather is supposed to suck the next couple of days in Monterrey, guys. Temperatures are barely going to reach 50F, 9-10C. Awful cool. No rain or bad winds, though. Last year or so, Daniela wasn't winning get-even matches, when the weather was cool, or if her match began late because of scheduling. This year, she's winning so matter what, so not too worried about the conditions. And she owes Aga's sister a few (3 consecutive losses to her). Here's hoping!

Unfortunately there doesn't look like there's going to be a stream

Dang, if anybody comes across a stream or tv station let me know. I haven't found a stream yet

Hang this one on me, guys. I was on the radio calling a high school basketball playoff game while the match was going on. Much as I hated it, all I could do was check the score during commercial breaks. Dani needed my full support and it couldn't happen. Bummed.
Hey, Daniela was overdue for a frustrating loss. Maybe I need to petition the WTA to not schedule her when I'm on the air. Or maybe to have her play all her matches in the middle of the night!
Still have to be happy with the season so far.

Not going to complain about this one to be honest. We couldn't watch the match and Ula in her interview said the conditions were different compared to last few days. A lot slower which would have helped Ula as Daniela's power would have been neutraliseed. Also evn though she had a days rest finishing a match at 2am in the first round does not do any favours so I expect Daniela wasnt able to move at her best.

Rest well for Indian Wells. Hopefully she can get a good draw and win at least two matches there. I am not enjoying the 2nd round exits but at least better than first round exits!

Both of the Mexican tournaments have ended up with Bacsinszky and Garcia in the final. Garcia's had a retirement in the quarter-finals and got past the top seed in the semi-final both times although she actually had to play the match in Monterey. I honestly don't know the last time that's happened. Bacsinszky beat Radwanska so maybe Daniela's result here wasn't too bad.
